[PATCH 5/9] Fix issues in write_pieced_value when targeting bit-fields

There are multiple issues in write_pieced_value when dealing with a
bit-field as the target value:
(1) The number of bits preceding the bit-field is calculated without
considering the relative offset of the value's parent.
(2) On big-endian targets the source value's *most* significant bits are
transferred to the target value, instead of its least significant
bits.
(3) The number of bytes containing a portion of the bit-field in a given
piece is calculated with the wrong starting offset; thus the result
may be off by one.
(4) When checking whether the data can be transferred byte-wise, the
transfer size is not verified to be byte-aligned.
(5) When transferring the data via a buffer, the bit offset within the
target value is not reduced to its sub-byte fraction before using it
as a bit offset into the buffer.
These issues are fixed. For consistency, the affected logic that exists
in read_pieced_value as well is changed there in the same way.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* dwarf2loc.c (write_pieced_value): Fix various issues with
bit-field handling.
(read_pieced_value): Sync with changes in write_pieced_value.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.dwarf2/var-access.exp: Add test for accessing bit-fields
whose containing structure is located in several DWARF pieces.
